Chapter 885 Tao Jingzhen

Although the Tao Kingdom is one of the Hundred Kingdoms in the Southern Wilderness, it is geographically very close to the Great Zhou Dynasty. In terms of customs and habits, it is closer to the Great Zhou Sect.

The country is run by an alliance of seventeen immortal-cultivating families, and the most powerful family is the Tao family.

The Tao Kingdom is close to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and its territory has developed very prosperously. Although its area is not very large, its strength is somewhat stronger than the average small southern wilderness country.

The Yu State before Zhang Zhixuan entered Taoism was probably not as powerful as the Tao State.

Tao State was formerly called Yao State, and the people who controlled this country were the Yao family, a family that cultivated immortals.

Although the Yao family did not have a Nascent Soul back then, there were five Golden Core cultivators in the family, making it the leading family in the Southern Wilderness.

Tao Boying, the ancestor of the Tao family, was born as a casual cultivator, and was blessed with deep blessings to become Yuanying. This person is the ancestor of the current Tao King's royal family.

After Tao Boying gave birth to a baby, he gathered a group of loose cultivators to destroy the Yao family's Taoism, occupied the territory of Yao State, and entered into numerous marriages with local cultivating families of Yao State, laying the foundation for the prosperity of the Tao family for two thousand years.

In two thousand years, the Tao family developed from Tao Boying to a large family of immortal cultivators.

Today, the Tao family has four Jindan monks, more than 30 Zifu monks, and more than 10,000 Qi-training and foundation-building monks.

Not counting Zhang Zhixuan and the others, the Tao family's power is no less powerful than that of the Zhang family of the Ziyang Sect.

Six hundred years ago, Tao Boying died in battle in Moyun Cave.

This man still has six hundred years to live, and Taoist Yu once issued an edict, promising to protect the Tao family's peace for six hundred years.

Now that the six hundredth year is approaching, it coincides with the maturity of the Tao family's Butian Zhi. Seeing that the family is in danger of destruction, Tao Jingzhen, the head of the Tao family, can only pray to the Ziyang Sect to protect the family.

Before the rise of the Ziyang Sect, the Tao family naturally did not dare to disobey the Dongxuan Sect. What's more, the Tao family no longer had Yuanying, so even if they wanted to negotiate terms with the Dongxuan Sect, it was impossible.

People are like swordsmen and fish, and Dong Xuanzong wants to pinch the Tao family as easily as pinching an ant to death.

After Tao Boying died in battle, the Tao family found a backer, the Mingshi Sect, in Dazhou.

The Mingshi Sect has only one Nascent Soul and six Golden elixir monks. However, in the Tao Kingdom, there are seventeen moderate or above-level immortal cultivating families and seven Golden elixir monks. They have taken refuge in the weaker Mingshi Sect, and the Tao Kingdom has a very strong one. of independence.

The Mingshi Sect is weak, and it is even less possible to check and balance the Dongxuan Sect.

Dongxuanzong wanted to buy Tianzhi, but the Tao family had no choice but to give it away.

However, the situation in Nanya Prefecture has changed drastically in recent years. Not only have contracts been signed between humans and monsters, peace has been restored.

Within the hundreds of sects in the Southern Wilderness, a powerful super sect has also emerged.

More than ten years ago, the sword fight in the vast sea caused a lot of commotion, and the Ziyang Sect was now more powerful than the Dongxuan Sect.

Among the monks in Nanya Prefecture, who today does not know the prestigious reputation of Ziyang Sect.

The ten major sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty each have their own spheres of influence in Nanya Prefecture.

With the rise of the Ziyang Sect, the high-level combat power is no less than that of the ten major sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In order to prevent conflicts and avoid wars, each sect of the Great Zhou Dynasty has agreed with the Ziyang Sect to allocate the vast area of ​​​​the Hundred Sects of the Southern Wilderness to Ziyang. Zong.

In the past, the offerings left by the Nanhuang Sect to the various sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty were now given to the Ziyang Sect.

After the sword fight in the vast sea, Tao Guo slowly began to break away from the Mingshi Sect and handed over the annual offerings to the Ziyang Sect.

With the Ziyang Sect's giant Buddha standing in the southern wasteland, Tao Jingzhen is not afraid of the invasion of the ordinary Nascent Soul Sect.

However, Dongxuan Sect is not an ordinary small sect. The monks of this sect have issued edicts that make Tao Jingzhen tremble every day.

Tao Jingzhen was ill and sought medical treatment indiscriminately. He hurriedly sent a letter to the Ziyang Sect that he wanted to include.

After sending the news, the man was still filled with fear.

To stir up troubles behind the Dongxuan Sect and stir up conflicts between the top forces in Nanya State, such as Dongxuan and Ziyang, the Tao family will be wiped out if they are not careful, and no one among the tens of thousands of monks may survive.

Such great pressure makes Tao Jingzhen live in fear all the time.

"How's it going? Is there any news from the Ziyang Sect?"

Seeing that the letter had been sent out for half a month, and the maturity date of Butianzhi was approaching, Tao Jingzhen was like an ant on a hot pot, constantly asking questions to the dozen or so family members below.

"Tao Guo and Ziyang Sect do not communicate with the teleportation array. Zu Lin's cultivation level is already at the third level of the golden elixir, and his personality is alert. He is our golden elixir hidden in the dark. Outsiders will never know about it, and he will definitely be able to successfully transmit the message. Thirteen Uncle, don’t be so worried, even if the Ziyang Sect doesn’t agree, the worst we can do is give up Bu Tianzhi to the Dongxuan Sect.”

The person speaking is the Tao family's highest-level Golden Elixir monk. His name is Tao Hongji. He is over 700 years old and has reached the ninth level of Golden Elixir. Although he is not as senior as Tao Jingzhen, he is two years older than him. , his magic power is also a bit better than his.

"Things are by no means as simple as you think. We are now considered vassals of the Ziyang Sect. The Dongxuan Sect still issued an edict to blatantly seize my family's Butianzhi. This matter will definitely offend the Ziyang Sect. The Ziyang Sect is strong and the Dongxuan Sect is powerful. Weak, under this situation Dongxuanzong still wants to get Butianzhi, I am afraid the value of this thing is far beyond our imagination.

Butianzhi originally came from the Yao family, and we have not yet figured out the true function of this substance. Once the news leaks and the Dongxuan Sect takes away this elixir, the Tao family will inevitably face the wrath of the Ziyang Sect. Will my family be able to maintain the inheritance by then?

Moreover, Butianzhi has been growing in the family elixir garden. There are no outsiders in the elixir garden and it is under strict protection. How did Dongxuanzong know that my Butianzhi was about to mature? This fact is not clear, which is why I am worried. "

After listening to Tao Jingzhen's analysis, Tao Hongji muttered to himself, with a bit of fear on his face: "Could there be a Yao family member in Dongxuan Sect?"

When Tao Boying destroyed the Yao family, one Jindan and six Zifu escaped through the teleportation array. Since then, the Tao family has been looking for the descendants of the Yao family for two thousand years, wanting to catch the enemy in one fell swoop and eliminate future troubles. Unfortunately, they have never been able to catch the trace of the Yao family. It was not until Tao Boying died in battle that the Tao family relaxed their search for enemies.

"It's almost certain that the descendants of the Yao family have also climbed to a high level in the Dongxuan Sect. Even if they haven't formed a fetus, they must be Jindan Zhenren. With this person in the Dongxuan Sect, my family will be wiped out if we are not careful."

"Then what should we do?"

"Fortunately, the Bu Tian Zhi cannot be transplanted, and it cannot be moved before it matures. My family can still be safe before the spiritual medicine matures. Zulin is also a hidden chess arranged by my family. Except for a few of us, outsiders have no idea. We should be able to pass the news to Ziyang Sect."

"If Ziyang Sect is unwilling to go to war with Dongxuan Sect and unwilling to protect my family, what should I do then?"

Tao Jingzhen said with a painful face: "If it really comes to that, I will disband the Tao family and everyone will accept their fate."

"My family has been passed down for two thousand years, but we can only pin our hopes on outsiders?"

"With the situation like this, we can only blame our family elders for not being as good as others."
